God Jul og Godt nyttår fra Stavanger !

While those do look good, they certainly do not meet the required legal specifications.
I believe a mirror is required to be minimum 70cm2, i.e. 7x10cm.
Those look more like 3x10cm.

You may not care, but at least you are informed that they could get you in trouble :)

Thanks for the information. Yes I noticed that these are rather small but wasnt aware about the exact legal specifications.

I guess quite many mirrors are a little too small maybe but its not much so nobody cares but these are much too small so maybe not optimal to use
I guess it depends how small they are, a 60cm2 mirror is probably hard to spot without measuring and you may get away with it, but that mirror looks like its maybe 3cm high.
They could look for the "E" marking though.

I have the Rizoma reverse retro bar end mirrors on mine, they are about 60cm2, legally too small, but they don't look too small at a quick glance.

If the mirror carries an approval mark, it complies with the minimum size requirement of 69 cm² and is therefore approved. For motorcycles first registered before 17 June 2003, a 60 cm² surface area is sufficient.
